Fashion & Photography — Vol. 5
Party Season · Metallic · Costume Magazine December · Alexandre Vauthier · Defaïence
A throwback on the Costume Magazine December issue focusing on party dresses. The Rebirth of the Princess concept is featured in cover and cover story with several brands from the store. It’s time again to appreciate the work of photographer Desiée Mattsson — when stylist Linda Wickmann came to the store and talked about the theme for this issue, we were thinking about metallic colours. Linda chose between Alexandre Vauthier and Defaïence for the jewelleries.
Metallic — The Cover
This year the collector item was back with 3 different covers and Defaïence jewellery came out on one of the covers with some items from the collection available on our webstore.
New trending aesthetic alert: Melty metallics. Cool silver tones and bold chrome will make their way into the mainstream. Golden looks, bronze power suits, and silver party pants are giving wardrobes everywhere a little extra sparkle.
Defaïence Jewellery
The perfect metallic accessories for the party season — Majolica Bracelet and Faïence Créole from Defaïence.
An interior design trend in 2024, metallic colours add a touch of luxury and coolness. Silver tones and bright chrome are the stars of this trend — and Defaïence captures this perfectly.
“Get your shine on. Metallic outfits, whether bold and blinding or subtly shiny, are never far from on-trend.”

Shining Bright
Crystal embellishment dresses are a stunning choice for adding a touch of glamour to any occasion — especially during the party season. These dresses feature intricate crystal detailing that catches the light beautifully, creating a dazzling effect.
Alexandre Vauthier is probably the one that made the store the most specific when it comes to crystal dresses or metallic fabrics — by his couture edition in every collection. His design and his own colour palette made his design a reference for all our customers.

The Crystal Dress
The photographer Desiée Mattsson took a splendid picture for the Costume Magazine December issue. The stylist Linda Wickmann chose from the store a stunning example of an Alexandre Vauthier crystal dress — a strapless, form-fitting design adorned with numerous small, shiny embellishments in a vibrant Japanese blue colour with a high slit on one side.
Mixing Metals — The New Era

Bold & Beautiful
In 2024, bid farewell to the notion of sticking to a single metal. The trend of mixing metals is set to flourish, allowing you to curate a harmonious blend of gold, silver, rose gold, and other metal colours. 2024 has ushered in a new era dominated by cool-toned metals, particularly aluminium and stainless steel — celebrated for their sustainability, versatility, and the modern, industrial edge they bring.
Party season.
Shine bright.
Make it metallic.
Nearly every era has had a pop of shine in its colour palette, from the gilded golden looks of the ’70s and the jewel-toned metallics of the ’80s to the sleek silvers of the early aughts. This December issue of Costume Magazine is a celebration of that timeless love for shine — and we were proud to be part of it.
